Almost everything is in the front panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThere are 16 channels, which can be used as:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-Midi controller\u003cbr\u003e-Manual CV generator (0 to 8v range)\u003cbr\u003e-Attenuator\u003cbr\u003e-CV to Midi CC\u003cbr\u003e-i2C controller\u003cbr\u003e-CV to i2C data\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-Midi TRS out\u003cbr\u003e-Jumpers on the back to swap between 'Arturia\/Novation' and 'Korg\/Makenoise' Midi TRS standards\u003cbr\u003e-USB Midi out (usb midi class compliant device)\u003cbr\u003e-4 switches to enable bi-polar CV to Midi \/ i2C conversion (one for every 4 channels)\u003cbr\u003e-i2C via mini jack on front panel and pin header on the back of the module.\u003cbr\u003e-16 inputs\u003cbr\u003e-16 outputs\u003cbr\u003e-16 faders\u003cbr\u003e-16 bi-color leds to show what's going on in every channel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Midi CC number and channels can be different for the TRS jack and the USB port. The firmware has been tweaked to allow also Pitch Bend, which is pretty handy because you can get much better resolution through Midi (from min to max values Midi CCs have 128 steps and Pitch Bend has a resolution of 16.384 steps).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe voltage generated by every fader is up to 8v, which is good enough to control eurorack modules (like wide open\/close the cutoff frequency of a filter etc).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIn the midi CC messages, 0 volts will correspond to a value of 0, and 8 volts to a value of 127. But the CV to Midi can handle also negative voltages, for such task there are 4 slide switches (1 for every 4 faders) that swaps the internal voltage reference in a way that, when activated, 0 volts will be the middle position of the midi controller, -4 volts the minimum value and +4 volts the maximum. Those switches only affect the Midi\/i2C outs, CV outs won't be affected by them in any way. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIf you plug in a bigger voltage source (like a -5v+5v LFO or a 10v envelope) the fader will work as attenuator, so you'll be able to adapt how that signal affects the Midi CC out, covering the whole Midi CC range, saturating the waveform or just affecting it briefly.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePanel USB port is type B, which seems to be stronger than mini or micro ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ei2C could connect directly to an ER-301, monome Ansible or a monome Teletype. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Teensy can be powered via the internal regulator or the +5v eurorack rail (selectable via a jumper on the back).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe partial kit comes with all SMD populated, so only through hole components requires soldering work.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis module is a derivative work from 16n Faderbank by Brian Crabtree, Sean Hellfritsch, Tom Armitage and Brendon Cassidy.
